somethin? had happened — that maybe you’d seen somebody. “I’ll tell you about it later, he said, smiling. For all his smile, she knew he had been moved. . They had dinner at a Spanish restaurant. Even during the meai, Harrow seemed ill at ease. He was particular which table they took and insisted on facing the window. He seemed to be watching for someone, she thought. After dinner, he asked, “Do you mind going back by train . Kay looked at him with frank surprise. “Why — no; but —there’s nothing wrong with the car, is there?’* “There might be," Harrow said. “Well, of course, I’ll go by train. He grinned at her disarmingly. “I hate to seem erratic,” he said. “They tell me I am bad enough in that respect, but I hate to give any false impressions. I'm going to ask you merely to humor me in this little idiosyncrasy. We’ll take the train back to Daytona and I ll have the car brought down later. Kay smiled at the tall, suave man. She seemed to understand now his reputation for strategy and farsightedness. He sat here before her, pleasant, smiling, well groomed, a bit tired, yet—who could tell how rapidly that shrewd brain was moving, what plans it was hatching? It was thrilling to consider. And yet there was something disturbing about his conduct; there had been something very sinister about his sodden action in the dungeon. She would not soon forget the narroweyed, thin-lipped look of black lage that had crossed his face. “I’ll ask you to excuse me for a few minutes,” he said. “I’ll see about the car and the train.” In a few minutes he was back. “We’re lucky,” he remarked. “There’s a train soon.” “Not that it matters,” Kay smiled. “I’ve been feeling so peaceful I hate to move. It’s been a lot of fun today." . , , “Yes it has.” He said it lightly, his eyes distant. Then he added: “Kay. I’m going to ask you to uo another thing that may seem a bit silly-” “Anything you say.

If there are violations'- of the charter provisions, the plan provides that the firm's incorporation papers shall be revoked, thus throwing the concern back into tlie code category.

t Nothing happened, though, on the ride and, when she arrived at j the station, Harrow was there to greet her and pay the driver. He 1 did not have his car. The train came and they got - aboard quickly. Inside, Harrow , watched the other passengers until he seemed satisfied, and took a last 1 look down at the platform. Then he j turned to her. , “Seems a silly business, 1 sup- , pose?” ’ “I don't know a thing about it. - After all, it’s your business.” s He leaned over and squeezed her s hand. “You are a grand girl,” he observed, and that was all. He made . no further reference to anything ’ that might be remotely connected . with the St. Augustine episode. Instead, he talked of the stage, i “Have you thought any more about r going to New York sometime and ; making a try?” he asked. ; “I’ve thought of it .. . yes,” she > said, looking out the window of the • train. “I’ve thought of it, too,” ho . added. > The pause that followed was em- . barrassing for her. Then he said: “You’d really fit i awfully well into my organization, ■ whether you went on the stage or • not.” “I'd love to work for you, too, . she agreed. “And I’m just crazy • to go to New York . . . but,” and she sighed. “I know," Earl Harrow said. ■ “Things in life don’t work out as well as in story books. In a novel, , now—well, I’d be ‘living happily ever after’ .. . several times . . and you’d be jumping to fame overnight on Broadway and marrying a handsome young clubman of the type drawn by James Montgomery Flagg. But it isn’t like that It’s a real world and it takes a realist to buck it. Now, I try to be a practical man. As such, 1 can see your position all too clearly. People have to make their own decisions. Happiness can’t be prescribed. Some of us never find more than it’s shadow . . .” Then even Earl Harrow was not satisfied, not happy.

The beacon had been operating continuously and the request puzzled naval men. Immediately following the request for the beacon came a message urging quick action and reporting that the plane was running short of gasoline. The plane at that time was flying at an altitude of 12,000 feet, and reported "visibility zero.” Powerful twin Lynx motors powered tlie British-made monoplane in which Ulm and two companions left the Oakland airport at 3:43 p. m. yesterday. George Littlejohn was at Iho controls when the plane lifted into the air and Leon Skillins sat in front of the elaborate radio sending and receiving set, through which the fliers kept in touch with ship and shore stations. Amelia Earhart Putnam, conqueror of the Atlantic by air, was among spectators at the airport. The fliers gave the passengers on the S. s. Lurline a thrill shortly after 8 p. m. Scores gathered on the decks of the liner to watch the ship searchlights pick out the tiny speck far above. Other ships saw the plane go by, for the route Ulm followed was directly over the ehip lanes, where help would be near if iie were forced to land. The fliers made provisions for a forced landing, although Ulm was confident “we won t get our feet wet". They had no life raft but the plane itself will float for days. They carried an apparatus used for distilling sea water. For food they had a dozen chicken sandwiches, a dozen ham sandwiches, six oranges and two quarts of hot coffee. For Ulm the flight is retracing the course he followed in 1928 as companion of Commander Sir Charles Kingst'ord-Smith in the ‘Southern Cross” on the first flight to Aihitralia ever made from California.
